Heavenly Ascension True God

Within the borders of Delta State of the nine states, among the countless academies, the Rising Dragon Academy was one of them.
This is a culturally diverse and historic academy. For centuries, cultivators, scholars, forgers, and alchemists have cultivated at the Rising Dragon Academy.
Today, once again, is awakening and recruitment day for students.
In this world, humans awaken an existence named ascension spirit in their bodies to become martial artists.
Only through awakening their spirits would they be able to communicate with heaven and earth to absorb spiritual mana and progress in their cultivation.
Understand that talents are categorized from low to high in the rising dragon academy, such as worm, snake, python, drake, and dragon; these are further divided into 9 levels from low to high; also, the ascension spirits rank can be upgraded through cultivation.
At the foot of a towering mountain, Travis stood surrounded by ridges. The wind whipped through his hair as he gazed up at the daunting peak, feeling excitement and trepidation. The vast expanse of wilderness stretched out before him, beckoning him to begin his ascent.
He entered a building filled with students. Their chatter filled the hall. As he walked through the crowded hallway, Travis felt a surge of determination to prove himself among his peers. The sound of laughter and conversation only fueled his motivation to succeed in his cultivation.
Silence, shouted a middle-aged man dressed in plain green clothes, introducing himself as a Daoist Rofort.
He spoke with a calm confidence that immediately drew Travis in, sparking curiosity about the man's knowledge and experience.
Travis felt a sense of respect for Daoist Rofort and a desire to learn from him.
With his presence powerful and commanding, he called out the names of students who were about to awaken their spirits.
Daoist Rofort's voice echoed through the room, instilling a sense of reverence in the students. As each name was called, anticipation and excitement filled the air, heightening the energy in the room.
At the podium, Rita, a petite sixteen-year-old girl, was handed a black pot filled with worldly essence; this is a type of natural oddity found deep within the earth.
Once she drank the worldly essence, her little body began bursting with energy, and after a while, she smiled and released a pink pig.
The pig was her spirit animal, a manifestation of her inner strength and potential. Rita's classmates watched in awe as the pink pig danced around her, solidifying her status as a promising young cultivator.
Daoist Rofort looked at the pink pig and said earth attribute, Hill Sleeping Pig, renowned for its high defense, snake grade, level 1. When it reaches dragon grade, it can become a Mountain Guiding Pig.
Rita's classmates were amazed by the rare and powerful spirit animal that had appeared before them. They knew that Rita's cultivation journey was off to an extraordinary start with such a unique companion by her side.
A student whispered to his friends, "That's a mountain deity." Someone else replied, That's only if she keeps ascending. Another replied, It only has high defense and weak offense, just a tough skin and weak bite.
A young man was called Mark Luther, and he ran out to receive his pot. He awakened a spiritual Rune symbol. He will be able to become an inscription master; after inspecting the rune, he was graded as a Python talent, level 1, and many others followed.
Travis Momoa was next to be called, and he approached the podium with a confident stride. As he received his pot, a mysterious feeling enveloped him, igniting a spark of determination in his eyes.
He quickly swallowed the worldly essence and felt an initial warmth spread throughout his body before a sensation akin to a whirlpool devoured all the energy and mana surrounding his body; it was as if a latent force within him was racing around, looking for an outlet eager to burst forth, but the sensation quickly died down as if running out of energy.
However, in the outside world, there was just silence.
Everyone was looking at Travis, waiting to see what type of spirit he would awaken, but after a while, someone spoke.
Is it just him, Travis Momoa? What a waste of space and resources! He can't even awaken an ascension spirit. Even I am better than him with a Worm Grade talent, haha! Look how cocky he looks. Someone else laughed and said, Come on, give him some slack. With his good looks, there are plenty of people willing to support him.
Closing his eyes, Travis couldn't bother to spare another glance at the crowd as he tried to locate the source of the disappearing energy. He was saddened by the fact that he did not notice anything but was not discouraged.
Stop dawdling at the podium; let others have their turn, shouted a female student, disdain etched across her face.
Travis took a deep breath and refocused his energy, determined to uncover the mystery. He stepped down from the podium, ready to continue his search with renewed determination.
As Travis rejoined the crowd, he was greeted by an array of mocking and scornful eyes. Travis smiled and acted unconcerned. He knew that he had a long journey ahead of him, but he was not going to let the negativity of others deter him from his goal. He was determined to prove them all wrong.
Oi, what's with this attitude? Do you know who I am? A lady who wore gorgeous clothes shouted as she pointed at Travis.
Travis simply chuckled and replied, "I know exactly who you are, and I'm not afraid of your intimidation tactics." He turned and walked away, his resolve stronger than ever.
Although he has not awakened his spirit, Travis feels different from all others; he does not feel inferior to others, he does not degrade himself, he is not afraid or scared of others, and he treats everything calmly.
